China MobileSoft will provide OEMs and ODMs with a complete solution for enhancing their smart phones utilising this technology, which allows consumers to record and playback high-quality, jitter-free video clips easily.

"The combination of CMS's Linux mobile phone design and InterVideo's innovative multimedia solution will help OEMs and ODMs differentiate their products while speeding time to market," said Jiping Wang, CEO of China MobileSoft.
